My Earliest Cats

My Earliest Cats. I started to rear cats when I was based in Penrissen Camp, Kuching, Sarawak in the 80s. A nice neighbour's female cat used to come over to our house and we used to feed her. It became attached to us and finally it was ours. Soon it gave us a litter of 4 hyper-active kittens that you see here.

Hi there! My name is Dottie. My master said because of my black marks on my head and backside, therefore I should be named Dottie. I hate the name. I prefer Sylvester (Stallone) or Steven (Segal) or Robert (Redford) because they sound more manly, but what choice do a cat has?

I love singing. You can call it natural talent. I hope to be

popular like Elvis Presley one day. My brothers love singing too. We hope to form a singing group one day.

My life is all play and no work. One of my passion is the aerobics. Once I start it I can never stop.

eh wah!

Sometimes I'm curious what my Masters swept under the carpets.

Sometime I look for my Master's ball of woollen thread

and chase it around the house. It's really fun.

At times we used to stretch mummy's patience to the limit

and she would give us a yell.

But at the end of it all, life as a kitten is good. Mummy would

pamper and pour out her love on us.

When I was transferred to KL in 1987, I brought three of the kittens, including Dottie. A month later, he died - he played and swallowed a poisonous frog. One more was attacked by a stray dog. Possibly heart-broken at the loss of his brothers, the third one disappeared and was never found.
